So they are already switching to the new Quantum-powered Gecko in Firefox 57?
- cpeterso 9y agoThere is no single switch. Quantum is an ongoing initiative to import more code from Servo into Firefox/Gecko and to improve Firefox responsiveness.
- bad_user 9y agoAwesome.
- giancarlostoro 9y agoThey do plan on replacing component by component so not sure how that will be in the case of Gecko, unless Gecko is already designed with pluggable parts then it would make sense, otherwise they might have to replace a lot of moving parts (not sure how large Gecko is / how much it needs to function) but it'll still be done in chunks if it's too large I'm guessing.
